74-year-old dancer Sonja Vukićević moves through socialist-modernist spaces, her body echoing Yugoslavia’s last mass performance. Intertwined with a teenage girl’s diary from 1988 (at the time of the protests that would later lead to the breakup of Yugoslavia), the film traces the shift from socialist collectivism to rising nationalism.

Marta Popivoda is a filmmaker, artist, and researcher. The main concerns in her work are the tensions between memory, history, and ideology, as well as the relations between collective and individual bodies. Popivoda approaches them from a feminist and queer perspective. Her work has been presented worldwide in the cinema and visual arts contexts. She received numerous awards for her films and artwork, including the prestigious Berlin Art Prize for the Visual Arts at the Akademie der Künste Berlin. Her film Landscape of Resistance was in competition at Cinema du réel in 2021. She teaches film at the University of the Arts in Amsterdam and is a member of the European Film Academy. She is currently a fellow of the Berlin Artistic Research Programme.
